I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Ranken Technical College in Oct 2025
Interview
Received a call initially about scheduling an interview. No intro email just photo communication until the end. Talked to two department heads and both of them had no knowledge of photography in a technical or creative aspect.
Both did not ask any appropriate questions about my background or experience which they highlighted about multiple times. They focused on if I had prior experience teaching which seemed to their only requirement to move forward.
Initially told I would hear an update within a few days. They didn't get back to me until 2 weeks later which is inconsiderate for an applicant's timeline.

What made you apply for this role?
I applied online. I interviewed at Ranken Technical College
Interview
Application, followed by one in-person interview with a small group. A positive interview experience. However, on my first day of work, I wore the same pants as the interview and was told they were "inappropriate" and not to wear them again. Very strict dress code.

Interview
After emailing my resume, I was contacted by the HR department. An initial interview was set up. At the interview I met with both HP as well as the development director. They are at the early stages of the process, and plan on running the ad again. At this point, they are probably not ready to make a decision until sometime in April.
